1 Intro Activity 1 Imagine you are a municipality with a recycling program that has been in place for years. Think about the following questions Create your municipality: 1. Name it! 2. Briefly define characteristics: Rural/Urban, Small/Large, Big/Low budget, Curbside or Drop off 3. How has the program changed over time in how materials are collected and what is accepted? 4. What are your biggest barriers to running a more effective program? 5. What are your biggest challenges to educating the public? 6. What is the least understood aspect of your recycling program? 7. If you had one wish from a recycling genie to make your program more successful, what would it be?
2 Scenario 2 How do you determine what resonates best with residents? How would you test message/media effectiveness on a limited budget?
